About The Owners
30A OLIVE OIL CO. is a family business owned and operated by Mark and Scott Cotner-Young who moved to 30A in 2016 to begin the next chapter of their lives. Mark had been in the IT business for over 20 years and Scott had been in Real Estate in the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area. Their Son, Ethan was graduating 8th grade and about to start high school. The family had owned a home in WaterColor, a beautiful community on 30A for nearly 10 years and had planned on moving to the area after Ethan graduated high school. Mark was ready for a life change and with Ethan transitioning to high school it seemed the perfect time to make the move...sooner than later! Once settled in, Scott began a new Real Estate venture with The Premier Property Group, Ethan started high school and Mark took a much-needed sabbatical.
30A Olive Oil Co. was founded in 2015 by the LaFrance family. They carefully and thoughtfully created a welcoming tasting gallery where guests could sample the many varieties of EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) and balsamic vinegars as well as other gourmet items such as sea salts and local honey. The product offerings increased to include other gourmet food item, olive oil based beauty products, olive oil soap and gift items.
The Cotner-Youngs had been loyal customers and fans of the store since it opened. When the LaFrance family decided it was time for a life change of their own they made the hard decision to sell. Mark immediately knew this was an opportunity he wanted to explore, and after meeting with the LaFrance family and convincing Scott to go along, they purchased the store in February of 2019.
Mark and Scott have spent the first few months of ownership putting their personality into the store and making it their own while holding true to the vision and legacy of the LaFrance family. They have expanded the product offerings as well with the introduction of wine to the mix, selling bottles of boutique wines as well as by the glass offerings during special events and tastings.
Both Mark and Scott love educating customers on the health benefits of EVOO and sharing tips, pairing ideas and recipes that combine the many wonderful flavor options of the oils and vinegars and wines!
